Chapter 37 Secret
As soon as he entered the crane garden, Zhiruo asked Axiang, who was good at water, to go to the "treasure hunt" of the crane statue in the middle of the lotus pond. Just in case, he also stared at the crowd of Grandma Qi Ba's family, especially Qi Sanlang.
Axiang was very smooth. As soon as he arrived by the lotus pond, he saw a small boat, which was clean. It was obvious that it was often used by someone. He sighed in his heart that the girl was really a magical one. Because of the clear goal and direction, Axiang fumbled through and quickly found the wooden box that Zhiruo mentioned, which was just a nail and could not be opened.
Zhiruo looked at the family rushing out of the door in a mess, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth: It was thanks to this family, otherwise she wouldn't know that there was a treasure hidden in the lotus pond. Obviously, her mother didn't know either.
Grandma Qi Ba, who was about to step out of the threshold, suddenly turned around, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Big nephew... Grandma, I... have a big secret. Can I exchange it for five... no, three hundred taels of silver?"
Zhiruo looked at her with a smile.
Just when Grandma Qi Ba was so embarrassed that she was about to run away embarrassedly, she heard a faint voice: "Tell me, if it's really worth it, I can consider it."
Grandma Qi Ba was like hearing the sound of Tian Shu, and didn't care about the word "consideration". Anyway, this "secret" might be useful to Yin Zhiruo, but it was useless to her at all. However, she looked at the individuals standing on both sides, not because of Zhiruo, but because she was afraid of... she was afraid of revenge!
Zhiruo was funny, but he still said to Qiang Bo and the others: "You can go out, Ruchun and Rudong are just waiting outside."
Ruchun and Qiang Bo happened to know that Zhiruo's martial arts are good. Not to mention an old woman, even a few burly men are not her opponents. So she smiled and took the others out with him. Rudong was still a little nervous. After closing the door, she raised her ears and paid attention to it, and murmured: "Sister Ruchun, Mrs. Qi won't set up any ambush, right?"
Although for more than ten years, the girl has to practice martial arts with the general every morning, isn’t that all to make the general happy? Apart from morning exercises, the girl never practices, and she has never seen her show off her skills. It was not until two months ago that the girl taught the three girls to practice boxing and fitness in the back garden that they knew what it was called “Five Animal Play”. What can it be used to look like a soft dance? Ruqiu also joked that women practiced at home naturally.
Seeing Rudong's little face wrinkled in fear, Ruchun smiled comfortably and said, "It's okay, the girl knows it. Do you think that family can set up some ambush?"
Rudong thought about the fact that Grandma Qi Ba's family almost didn't look like they were pissing off. Well, it seemed like that. However, she suddenly thought of what the girl said just now. What did the family do in Huizhou so afraid that others would know? Also, how did the girl know?
In the room, Zhiruo still held a teacup and savored it carefully, with elegant posture, neither lenient nor anxious, as if he had forgotten that there was another person in the room.
Grandma Qi Ba was sweating again. Why did this aunt sit there without saying a word and put a lot of pressure? It’s not wrong to be the same person, why did it become so terrible after going to Luocheng?
At this moment, she had no thoughts of bargaining or lions opening her mouth. She said in a trembling voice: "One day ago, I went to the General's Mansion to ask for a meeting with the princess. Because the tea in the Mansion was delicious for several cups, she went to the south corner of the garden and was anxious and held back...I couldn't hold it anymore. There was a small cave behind the rockery, so I hid inside... I thrust a little quickly. Unexpectedly, Master Yin Er and Mrs. Yin Er and his wife met there so by chance, and they even asked everyone around them to retreat and said a few words. As soon as they opened their mouths, they mentioned the General."
Grandma Qi Ba deliberately stopped here, trying to see Zhiruo's reaction. Unfortunately, Zhiruo was still focused on tea tasting, with an attitude of "you like to say or not."
In fact, Zhiruo was drunk at this time for a picture drawn in his head. Well, there was indeed a hole behind the rockery in the south corner of the garden of the General's Mansion. She also ran in to play when she was a child, but the hole was too small, so it was hard for Grandma Qi Ba to hunch it in it.
Zhiruo glanced at Grandma Qiba again, OK, this old woman should be less than 1.5 meters tall and dry, and it seems to be somewhat "conditional". Haha, no wonder she hid inside and eavesdropped and was not revealed.
Grandma Qi Ba had no choice but to sigh inwardly and continued, "I heard the second wife ask the second master if he succeeded. The second master said that the general was too cautious and had no idea to start, but there was no lock in the study. He didn't think the general would put anything important. Then the second wife cursed and said that Mr. Yu intended to make things difficult for them, so she didn't know what it was. She didn't know how to find it, whether it was round or flat. She also said that she wouldn't even know who the mysterious master behind him was, right?
The second master seemed frightened at that time and roared in a low voice, 'Shut up', and said that the master behind Mr. Yu wanted to get rid of them as if he was pinched an ant to death. On the contrary, he would climb up to him and become rich and noble in the future. It was all because the general was too stubborn, did not know how to integrate, and was too trusted by the emperor, so the master had to get rid of him."
Zhiruo put down the teacup, looked straight at Grandma Qi Ba, and judged the authenticity of those words. It turned out that the second uncle and second aunt were really the traitor who killed their parents with the inside and outside? He hated them for their ruthlessness in his previous life, and actually sold Mingze and the others to that kind of place, colluded with the Qiu family to frame her and divided her dowry. It turned out that their cruelty and ruthlessness were far more than this!
Grandma Qi Ba is most afraid that Zhiruo looked at her silently, and her eyes that seemed to penetrate everything made her breathlessly. She quickly swears: "Grandma, I swear that I never said a single word, it is the original words of the Second Master and the Second Lady."
Zhiruo's voice was as cold as water: "You mean the second master and the second wife killed my parents?"
"No," Grandma Qi Ba was so scared that she waved her hands, "I didn't say that, I...I..." Yes, she was confused? Didn't Yin Zhao commit crimes? Why did she say this? The emperor is the one who commits crimes against rebellion. Isn't that saying that the master behind Mr. Yu is the emperor? Oh, she is going to die. Why did she say this? Do you want to be dragged to the Meridian Gate?
